Blaze: Next Generation Numpy

Blaze is a next-generation NumPy sponsored by Continuum Analytics. It is designed as a foundational set of abstractions on which to build out-of-core and distributed algorithms. Blaze generalizes many of the ideas found in popular PyData projects such as Numpy, Pandas, and Theano into one generalized data-structure. Together with a powerful array-oriented virtual machine and run-time, Blaze will be capable of performing efficient linear algebra and indexing operations on top of a wide variety of data backends.
